The King of Bad Movies[Entertainment Circle]

In the current film market, simple films like "My Dreams Can Fly" are not popular at all. In the minds of the audience, this kind of film is very earthy and full of mission films that rob money.

But after actually entering the movie theater, their thoughts changed completely—the style is simple and simple, but the core of the movie "My Dreams Can Fly" is quite moving.

Especially in the last scene of the movie, the children returned to their hometown in a car, and the wheels kicked up a burst of dust on the muddy ground. The smiling faces of the children were as bright as the fiery sunset. After watching it, the audience always had a feeling of hope in their hearts .

It seems that at that moment, they also picked up their enthusiasm for life and life again.

"Thank you Gu Shanyu for the recommendation! Ah! The movie recommended by Gu Shanyu is really great."

"Are all the promotional films in City A Film Festival of this high quality? I'm starting to become interested in this film festival."

""My Dreams Can Fly" is the second movie that made me cry after "Graduation Season". These movies are all moving because of reality."

More and more viewers are willing to recommend the movie "My Dreams Can Fly" on the Internet. With the fermentation of word of mouth, "My Dreams Can Fly" has become a clear stream in the summer when blockbusters gather.

After the movie was released for two weeks and got a box office far exceeding the cost, Gu Yu's income for a year has also become a hot topic of discussion in the media.

The media used their calculators to help Gu Yu settle the accounts bit by bit.

"Gu Yu currently has a total of six brand endorsements, all of which have long-term contracts of more than two years. His agency obviously considers the shaping of his personal image, and the brands he chooses are of high quality. These endorsements can at least serve him for a year. Bring in $2000 million in revenue."

"The second is the film remuneration. Gu Yu's remuneration is recognized by the industry as being highly cost-effective. The remuneration for filming "Graduation Season" and "Jianghu" is not even one-tenth of that of Qiao Xizhou's "Above the Sky", but that is after the reduced price." As a result, according to insiders in the industry, Gu Yu's salary for "Idol" was 1000 million after tax. Even so, compared with other actors, Gu Yu's salary is relatively low. In terms of salary, temporarily Give Gu Yu 2000 million."

"But Gu Yu is not an actor who completely depends on his salary. He participated in the box office share of "Graduation Season" and invested in "Jianghu" and "My Dreams Can Fly". Roughly, these three movies made him at least 1 This is perhaps the most conservative figure.”

"Other actors may be able to achieve this kind of data, but on the one hand, they don't have the good vision of Gu Yu when it comes to film investment. Most of them get a share of the commercial blockbusters, and the profits after deducting expenses are not impressive. On the other hand, considering Gu Yu's age and debut time, such accumulation of wealth can be described as quite astonishing."

The most important thing is that the media seldom captures the news about Gu Yu flaunting his wealth, such as buying villas and luxury cars. His greatest interest seems to be investing in movies—so inexplicably, under the deliberate shaping of the media, Gu Yu The image of the miser is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Gu Yu didn't understand the focus of the media. He felt that this group of people was too full to pay attention to the topic of whether others should buy a car or not.

On the contrary, Ning Chuan agreed with the media's point of view.

"That's right! It's so picky, I can't even afford to invite me to a hundred meals." Ning Chuan intercepted the content of the report and sent it to the group, "Finally someone discovered this."

Gu Yu quietly threw out an article titled "The popular idol is reluctant to ride a shared bicycle?"Running one kilometer home late at night" article.

Ning Chuan: "..."

"Fans Chased Gu Yu Two Streets But Got Away"

"The Mystery of Famous Idol's Chest Muscle Training"

"Shock!He who ate meat in the middle of the night was treated like this! "

After posting the title, Gu Yu suddenly felt that it was wrong. He was about to withdraw it and say that he had posted it to the wrong person. When he looked up, he had been banned by the group leader for two hours.

Gu Yu: "..."

Ning Chuan made an emoji with his hips akimbo laughing wildly: "Retribution, Gu Shanyu!"

Gu Yu said that he really underestimated Yi Xiao's paranoia about eating meat.

……

"My Dreams Can Fly" achieved good box office results in the summer. Coupled with the positive energy attributes of the film itself, it has aroused the attention of all walks of life in mountain village education, including sports, and the filming location received assistance from the outside world.

At the same time, the promotion of films by the City A Film Festival has also begun to be recognized.Whether it is "Jianghu", which achieved a box office counterattack on New Year's Day last year, or "My Dreams Will Fly", which sparked social discussions this year, films with different themes can be shown on this platform. At the start time, there were already more films registered for the exhibition than the total number of last year, including some famous works.

Yan Xiu joked with Gu Yu: "If I knew you were so useful, I would drag you over this year."

Last year was the first film festival to be organized, and Yan Xiu himself was a little bit overwhelmed. This year's scale is expected to be larger than last year, but because the whole is on the right track, Yan Xiu is not as busy as last year.

"Although the film festival is important, I can't lose my job. I'm still an actor after all."

Once the film festival was on the right track, Yan Xiu had the intention of letting go. He asked Gu Yu if he was interested in taking over, but Gu Yu sternly refused: "It's too troublesome."

"I knew you would think so. That's right, you're still young after all." Yan Xiu asked, "Will "Idol" be released in time for the end of last year?"

"Not sure." Gu Yu explained, "Director Jian has very high requirements for the later stage."

"That's true. I've worked with her before, but if "Idol Fanatic" doesn't win this year, won't you miss the Maple Leaf Awards next year?"

Gu Yu blinked: "You make it sound like I'm sure I'll be able to."

"The possibility is very high." Yan Xiu patted Gu Yu's shoulder, "I believe in your strength."

After the filming of "Idol Fanatic", Gu Yu didn't pay much attention to it. After all, Jian Yin is a long-established director with her own style and experience. Directors of this type usually don't like outsiders to criticize their own works.Among the directors that Gu Yu came into contact with, only Zhang Hui would ask Gu Yu for his opinion on editing, and that was because he was not experienced enough as a director.

The editing right is the life right of the director.

……

During the summer vacation, Lemon TV's holiday festival still invited Gu Yu as in previous years. Gu Yu still refused this year. When the weather gradually turned cold, Gu Yu also received a notice from the crew of "Tianji".

"Secretary: Code 998" is a spy film, and the chances of this type of theme being put on the small screen are much higher than those on the big screen. A deep espionage work, telling the story of intelligence personnel in special era fighting wits and bravery with the enemy to obtain information.

——It should be so.

But "Tianji" is somewhat different.

Director Qu Xia wanted to make it into a series of novels.

The hero of the movie is not the intelligence officer shown in previous works. He is smart and rational, and can even be ruthless when necessary. Coupled with his extraordinary skills, he has made great contributions in intelligence work.

The director's ambition was only told to Gu Yu alone, and he didn't talk to the rest of the crew.

As for the reason, it is naturally to cheat from Gu Yu... No, to get a little investment, because it is not easy for a subject like "Tianji" to be filmed, let alone made into a series.

But what Qu Xia didn't expect was that after Qu Xia presented the setting and script, Gu Yu immediately agreed.

While the director was pleasantly surprised, he couldn't help feeling a little more guilty about taking Gu Yu for taking advantage of him.

But as a director, he naturally hopes that Gu Yu will be wronged... No, the more investors, the better.

If possible, Qu Xia didn't want to find Gu Yu that much - after all, the other party is the protagonist of the movie, and with the addition of an investor status, if the other party has any bad quirks, the filming progress of the entire movie will be affected.

However, every director has a "world" dream in his heart, and wants to create a series of worlds for his works. Qu Xia is a typical commercial director, so of course he has this idea.

It's a pity that no matter how beautiful an idea is, it won't work without money.

He also doesn't have a big name enough to make investors line up to invest in him.

Gu Yu's investment in "Jianghu" was an opportunity for him to find the other party. A martial arts film like "Jianghu" can get sponsorship from the other party, and "Tianji" belongs to the category of commercial films after all.

Qu Xia is not greedy. After careful study, the investment of a "Tianji" cannot be higher than that of "Jianghu". As a director, he is not as delicate as Ling Zhihuai. There are war scenes in the book, but they only serve the main line, and the space occupied is quite limited.

Great directors have their unique ways of burning money, and directors like Qu Xia also have money-saving tips that are not humane.

He excitedly sent a message to screenwriter Lou Lou: "I got it! I got it!"

I thought my partner would be as excited as him, but Qu Xia only received a message from the other party on his mobile phone: "Have you signed the contract?"

Of course not.

Qu Xia calmed down for a few seconds, and decided to continue to have a good relationship with the hero of her movie.

Even if the other party can't invest tens of millions at once as promised, installments are fine, even 1000 million is fine...

Every time at this time, Qu Xia deeply lamented why he was not a big director, and he also wanted to live a life of burning money for fun.

……

After joining the crew of "Tianji: Code 998", Gu Yu spent two days getting used to the shooting rhythm. He studied the script of "Tianji" carefully many times during his rest time. Although he didn't want to admit it, since he started shooting So far in the movie, "Tianji" is the only cool story by the male protagonist.

It's even cooler than "Graduation Season".

If this kind of spy war-themed movie is made into a series, it will be very attractive to the audience, so when Qu Xialai and Gu Yu were discussing, Gu Yu directly agreed to the other party's proposal.

There are too many mindless themes in overseas blockbusters. Actors are popular all over the world with their handsome faces and muscular bodies. But if you look carefully, those movies have obvious logical errors, but this does not affect them at all. The movie is raking in the box office around the world.

Qu Xia's directing skills are always online, and he can control the rhythm of commercial films very smoothly. Of course, he can't be as delicate as Ling Zhihuai and Zhao Hang, but the most important thing for purely commercial works is the rhythm of the film, visual and auditory stimulation. Also very important.

He is quite looking forward to the final film of "Tianji".
